Home Care in Caerleon: Trusted Local Support for Older People and Their Families

Caerleon is a special place to grow older. With its Roman amphitheatre and baths, its riverside walks along the Usk and its friendly high street, it has the feel of a village while being just minutes from Newport. Many people have lived here for decades – and when they start to need a little more help, most want to stay exactly where they are.

At Home Instead Newport, Cwmbran and Chepstow, we help older people in Caerleon do just that. Founded in 2017 by Karen Clatworthy and led today alongside her daughter Laura, we’re rated 9.9/10 on homecare.co.uk, with more than 60 five-star reviews, and have been named one of the Top 20 home care providers in Wales multiple years running.

What home care in Caerleon includes

Every care package is built around the person, not a checklist:

• Everyday home care – companionship, home help and housekeeping, personal care, daytime care, overnight care and respite care.

• Specialist care – for people living with dementia, cancer, Parkinson’s and other neurological conditions, arthritis and mobility difficulties, and palliative care at home.

• Health and complex care – nail care, catheter and stoma care, simple wound care, vital signs monitoring and diabetes monitoring.

• Live-in care – a dedicated Care Professional living in the home for round-the-clock reassurance.

Every visit lasts a minimum of one hour, so there’s always time to help properly and to enjoy a good chat.
